Astronomy Quote by Elisabeth Hewer
““You The lines of your neck. The slope down to your shoulders. The unsteady blue welt of veins at your wrists, a sluggish estuary pounding into your fingers. Lungs that were once stars heaving air in and feet that are still walking despite it all dragging through the dust. You: A miracle with a smile like skies. A universe wearing human skin.””
